I'd rather you didn't post it up here. Why not tell people where they can go and listen to a sample of it? This Forum is not responsible for the content of external internet sites, image if we were! Blimey, what a nightmare that would be.

I have obtained this album, not sure what to make of it after just the one listen. It hasn't grabbed me by the cahunas just yet, I guess it must be a grower.


It will struggle to top "Come on Feel the Illinoise" in my humble opinion...

It does require a few listens to begin sinking in. Come on Feel The Illinoise is superb, but imho doesn't have the lasting minty freshness of ITAOTS.

I really hope you gel with it Captain, it's worth it.


I liked the quote from wossisname from Franz Ferdinand on the back about it being the one cassette in his car for years and never quite guaging what the bloody hell it was on about, but feeling like you've experienced something bigger than yourself at the end of it.


But then I'm a pretensious muso when it comes down to it, so I wouldn't listen to me.

definitely a grower - I recall not getting it at first. When it finally grabs you though, it doesn't let go.



A site for the obsessive completist with movs and live mp3s etc is here:

All together now: "Two-headed boooooooooooooooooooy..."

Hey, I have it on my MP3 player


"All of them milking their green fleshy flowers while powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines

smelling of seamen while under the garden was all you were needing when you still believed in me"


was that what you were after captain?

(note the those last two tunes) and there's 2 more discs of this brilliance!

as part of the miseducation of my children currently hot faves are: james brown (name gives that away), old tribe called quest & de la soul, david bowie, the beatles, marlena shaw, roy ayers ... the list goes on longer than my ipod battery lasts...


no doubt criticism will be leveled that there is nothing new on the list but whenever i turn the radio on i just want to turn it off, plus the kids just love that funky drummer.


p.s. radio nova in france (get live stream on line) pisses all over anything here and they don't speak too much french on it.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
    • We found a recommendation for Geek Electrics on a here after we wanted to have a electrical inspection of a property we are buying. From the very beginning through to the end Bob was responsive, helpful and demonstrated his knowledge. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. We will defiantly be using Bob again and would thoroughly recommend him! His details are... www.geekelectrics.co.uk 07453 407 226 [email protected]
    • I want to try that and also the granary loaf. Used to get a good granary loaf from the bakery that was in Herne Hill a long time ago.  Think they are somewhere In the vicinity of Coulsdon now. They used to make the hamburger buns for the Meatwagon/Meatliquor people.
